Courses WS24/25
Form, geometry and material are inseparable aspects in the art of structural design. Bringing these building blocks together means approaching the contemporary challenges of structural design in an efficient and sustainable way. The goal at dos is to teach the cross-material fundamentals of structural design and building construction.
At "Design and Construction”, a design task will be developed in collaboration with students of the faculty of Civil Engineering. The designs tasks will be developed in mixed groups. The aim of this course is to train students from both disciplines on an interdisciplinary spectrum.
